FULL CIRCLE FRIDAY-BIRD ON A WIRE


All the stories you know, and ones you don’t, but should. Welcome to FULL CIRCLE THURSDAY.

MONDAY
-Bengals linebacker Vontaze Burfict was hit with a $25,000 fine for twisting Cam Newton AND Greg Olsen's ankles during Sundays 31-31 tie with the Panthers.
Not bad, but he needs to get some more torque on it if he wants Olsen to tap...he should holler at Kurt Angle for pointers.
He's good...he's DAMN good.

-This brave soul in the Eli Manning jersey really seems to enjoy the garbage being tossed at him by Philly's finest...
Either trash showers are really good for the skin or he's just happy they're not throwing bricks, batteries, urine or other Eagles fans instead.

TUESDAY
-Aw, PUPPY!
Who's a good dog?!  HE"S A GOOD DOG!!!!!  Yes he is!  Yes he is!

Does anyone even give a  damn about the game and who's playing at this point?  More puppies may just be the key to Soccer's growth in the United States

-Former Kings point guard Jason "White Chocolate" Williams is 38 years-old and hasn't played in an NBA game since 2011, but still looks capable of making unsuspecting young marks part of his highlight reel.
White Chocolate forever.

WEDNESDAY
-Royals sweep the Orioles to head to the World Series!  Let's see what it sounds like from the parking lot!
 I can't help but feel sorry for the poor bastard who couldn't make it inside Kaufman Stadium (or at least a bar) for the celebration but hey, at least he's got a head start on everyone over to the victory Keggar at Paul Rudd's mom's house!

-Conor Callihan, a High School student in Asheville, NC broke his tibia in three places right before the finish of the Mountain Athletic Conference championships dropping him to the turf.

So what did he do?
CRAWLED through the finish line!  "I just had to finish for my team.  I just had to" said Callihan.

Oh most Greg Jennings shit I've ever heard!!!!!
You hear that Greg Jennings?  Connor Callihan puts the team on his fucking back for real!

THURSDAY
-It's been a rough season for Michigan so but this tailgate bro is here to remind all the Big Blue fateful not to lose hope.

"Now let's grill these brats, tap a new keg, set some flip-cup up and....LET'S DO THIS SHIT!"

But fuck all that shit right now...
In the past for me, the Bank of America Chicago Marathon has only meant an influx of unwanted traffic down my block due to street closures.

Things changed last Sunday when I decided to wake up at the crack of dawn on a Sunday to show some friends some love and actually watch people run.

Can't lie, I enjoyed it.

People running for friends!  People running for causes!  People running for themselves!  Costumes! Hot Tea (for me)! Graham Elliot!

Hats off to all you marathoners.  Personally, I admire you guys because long distances and I have a longstanding beef going back to those old mile-runs your teachers used to make you do in PE class.

I mean look at this old course map from 2010...
26.2 miles...in schizophrenic Chicago weather...that thing looks like a track from Mario Kart hell.

You realize you hit up all four Chicago ballparks/stadiums doing that thing, right?

Now while part of me holds marathoners in the highest respect after Sunday...

The other part of me can only say fuck you all for being dedicated enough to spend five-six months training your asses off for that monster while the rest of us bathe in average, resting on the couch, maxing queso dip. 

You people have to be some of the must smug assholes on the planet after you finish those things and I don't blame you...if a zombie apocalypse breaks out, you got a pretty high chance of making it!

Unless of course, you run into a zombie Kenyan...then you got some problems.

-Giants win the NL pennant.  Cardinals go home to St. Louis.  Madison Bumgarner pours more beers on his face....
Seriously, get this guy a straw.  Now you're just being wasteful.

FRIDAY
-Geno Smith trucks poor, unsuspecting woman.
Somewhere out there, Stephen A. Smith thinks she was asking for it.

WEEKEND WATCH!
What you should be doing this weekend if you know, you’re not drunk or doing something better…

SEE FURY!
Brad Pitt is back kicking Nazi ass and he brought Shia LeBeouf along for the ride!

WATCH FLORIDA STATE VS. NOTRE DAME!
Somebody is about to get their ass whipped!  It ain't going to be Florida State!

FRIDAY SHOUT-OUT!
Recognizing whomever the hell I want!

Shout-Out to Nick "Swaggy P" Young!

Swaggy P came to the aid of his girlfriend Iggy Azalea after Snoop Dogg trolled her hard earlier this week!

It's a pretty amateur  (but ballsy) decision going after Snoop when you play ball in his hometown Swaggs!

However, the feud has apparently ended and all seems well...until you see Snoop and his people sitting court side at the next Lakers game..

Thanks for reading!  See you next week! Roxanne, you don't have to put on the red light.

-WST
